Bioenergía | Bioenergy www.futurenergyweb.es 48 FuturEnergy | Mayo May 2017 Con estos proyectos se consiguen los siguientes impactos económicos: • Valorización de productos obtenidos de la gestión forestal de los bosques de los ayuntamientos que actualmente son deficitarios. • Creación de entre 40-50 puestos de trabajo directos entre los desarrollados en el bosque y en la gestión energética de los dos proyectos. Los puestos de trabajo son de carácter local, siendo aproximadamente el 80% de los trabajadores de municipios de los ayuntamientos de la mancomunidad. • Fomento de la economía de la comarca en los puestos de trabajo indirectos. • Aportación de recursos económicos a los ayuntamientos y empresas que utilizan la biomasa como recurso energético obtenido de la gestión forestal de bosques públicos, en vez del pago a empresas multinacionales que gestionan combustibles fósiles. • Ahorro económico por la utilización de la energía procedente de la biomasa de los ayuntamientos y las empresas (más competitivas). Valldan de Berga, to supply heat for the productive processes of several companies. As with the previous project, all the biomass used will originate from the sustainable forestry management of the town halls’ own woodland (circular bioeconomy). The use of energy in industrial production processes allows the municipal association to maintain a biomass management activity throughout the year, not just in winter. The project data is as follows: • Working temperatures between 80ºC with water and 270ºC with thermal oil. These characteristics can supply an extensive range of temperatures to current industries and to others that could open premises on the industrial estate in future. • It works as a heating network, distributing hot water and thermal oil a distance of 650 m, via a gallery of services. • Two 2.3 MW thermal oil boilers. • Need for between 3,000 and 6,000 tonnes of woodchip with 30% humidity (depending on the operating level). • Heat is transmitted to industries through exchangers with independent circuits. • Job creation. These projects aim to achieve the following economic impacts: • Waste-to-energy obtained from the forestry management of woodland owned by town halls that are currently loss making. • Creation of 40-50 direct jobs in woodland development and in the energy management of both projects. These locally created jobs cover some 80% of the municipal workers in MMBB’s town halls. • Promoting the region’s economy through indirect jobs. • Providing those town halls and companies that use biomass with an energy resource originating from the forestry management of public woodlands, rather than paying multinationals for fossil fuels. • Economic saving arising from the use of energy generated from the biomass produced by town halls and businesses (more competitive).
